 Jim,
Yes, the correct Dana 44s for our Tigers are hard to find, but I'm always l=
ooking.The units I rebuild and sell drop right in the original rearend with=
 no mods.Wish I had known you were in the market and could have helped you =
out. Could have saved you from having to spend more money to convert your a=
xles.Good to hear you're up and running ... and leaving your mark(s).
Gary
